I've been on GIlenay since 9/1/11. My Lymphocyte count has been dropping rapidly. (I guess the Gilenya is doing it's job).
I have been instructed to stop the Gilenya, get blood drawn in 12 days and then restart the Gilenya on day 14 (so I don't have to do the re-observation first dose). I'll get tested again after restarting the Gilenya.
Has anyone gone through this before? What were your before and after absolute lymph counts?
Also, did you experience any odd issues following stopping the Gilenya? I've noticed that my hands are swelling a little over the past few days.
Thanks for any input.
